Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and I (cTnI) levels are considered as important diagnostic tools in
acute coronary events. They could be of predictive value in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The …

BACKGROUND: There is a reluctance to use cardiac troponins (cTn) for the monitoring of
acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in hemodialysis (HD) patients because renal failure per se …

Background: It has been recently suggested that cardiac troponin T (cTnT) may be more
sensitive than troponin I (cTnI) for subclinical myocardial cell injury in patients on chronic …

Background: Cardiovascular complications are a major cause of mortality in chronic kidney
patients (CKD) patients. More than 50% of patients of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) die …

Abstract Background. Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is a subunit of the cardiac actin–myosin
complex, which leaks into the circulation when myocardial necrosis is present. Detection of …

Background: Recent studies have shown that cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels predict
cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study is to analyze the …

Background—This study determined the prevalence of increased cardiac troponin I (cTnI)
and T (cTnT) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients and whether an increased …

Cardiovascular diseases represent the main cause of death in hemodialysis (HD) patients.
Cardiac troponins (cTnT and cTnI) are indicators of myocardial damage. The aims of this …

Background Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is frequently elevated in asymptomatic hemodialysis
(HD) patients and predicts increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Compared to …

OBJECTIVES We sought to evaluate the prognostic value of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in
asymptomatic, ambulatory patients with chronic renal failure treated with long-term …
